Self-configuration of a Robotic Platform to support a self-organized Manufacturing Process (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Jimenez, L. A. E., Sanderson, D., Chaplin, J. C., & Barata, J. (2022). Self-configuration of a Robotic Platform to support a self-organized Manufacturing Process. In IECON 2022 – 48th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society. https://doi.org/10.1109/IECON49645.2022.9968868

Self-configuration in manufacturing is a key trend to generate adaptable production systems. Different product requirements need different machine settings and continuous software update. Existing approaches usually assume that manufacturing resource... Read More about Self-configuration of a Robotic Platform to support a self-organized Manufacturing Process.

Automating the Generation of MBD-Driven Assembly Work Instruction Documentation for Aircraft Components (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Papadaki, A. R., Bacharoudis, K., Bainbridge, D., Burbage, N., Turner, A., Sanderson, D., …Ratchev, S. M. (2023). Automating the Generation of MBD-Driven Assembly Work Instruction Documentation for Aircraft Components. In Flexible Automation and Intelligent Manufacturing: The Human-Data-Technology Nexus: Proceedings of FAIM 2022, June 19–23, 2022, Detroit, Michigan, USA (394-403). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-18326-3_38

The classical approach to the creation of assembly work instructions for high value, complex products is time-consuming and prone to error. It requires a process engineer to write the work instructions step-by-step and manually insert specific techni...

Reference Architecture for Space Production Systems (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Sanderson, D., Brown, A., Leadbetter, J., Gordon, A., Shires, E., & Ratchev, S. (2022). Reference Architecture for Space Production Systems. In 9th European Conference for Aeronautics and Space Sciences

In this paper, we propose a conceptual framework and reference architecture for space production systems (SPS). A review of the existing digital architecture approaches and standards for space systems identifies a number of potential avenues. Based o...
